lyrics

I gave you life and watched you grow
Adding strings to your bow
Out of nothing came a spark
And now you're closest to my heart
Draining and sustaining me
But is this healthy?

Stubbornly refusing help
I need to do this by myself
I alone this cross to bear
Why should I share when no-one cares?
As if they'd ever understand
That you complete me

Cutting cords and apron strings
The more I give, the more you cling
If you love them set them free
And reminisce on memories
But I'm still holding on
I can't lose you

I pushed you out into the waves
To no applause and no acclaim
No ripples heard, no echoes seen
You disappeared without a trace
Let them take you where they may
At least I loved you

Giving up and letting go
Keeping busy fills the hole
I turn at every open door
But I can't hold you anymore
It seems like you were never there
I hope that someone hears you

Starting over, moving on
To build a bridge, a verse, a song
This silent brooding bitter mess
Is feathering an empty nest
Cause I'm the lonely one
The only one who'll miss you when you're gone
